Bismuth is a strong oxidising agent in the pentavalent state. Or Pentavalent bismuth is a strong oxidising agent.

Answer»

Solution :Since the inert pair effect is very prominent in BI, THEREFORE, its +5 oxidation state is much LESS stable than its +3 oxidation state. In other words, BISMUTH in the pentavalent state can easily accept two electrons and thus gets reduced to more stable trivalent bismuth.
`Bi^(5+) + 2 e^(-) rarr Bi^(3+)`
Therefore, Bi in the pentavalent state acts as a strong oxidising agent.
10.

Bismuth in +5 oxidation state is a strong oxidising agent. Why?

Answer»

Solution :Due to the LARGEST atomic volume of Bi, the largest nuclear charge, +5 oxidation state of Bi is LESS STABLE and has a strong tendency to accept electrons and reduce to stable +3 state. Therefore BISMUTH in +5 oxidation state acts as a strong oxidising agent.

Binary solution can be of nine different types depending upon the nature of the solute and solvent waether solid, liquid or gas. They may be further classified as solid, liquid and gaseous solutions based on the component which act as the solvent. Howerver, the liquid solutions are the most important. Both solids and gases dissolve in liquids resulting in homegeneous mixtures i.e., solutions. The solubility is governed by number of factors such as nature of solute and solutions can be expressure etc. The concentrations of the solutions can be expressed in different ways such as normality, molarty, molality, mole fration etc. Out of these, molality and mole fraction are better as they donot change with the change in temperature. as they donot change with the change in temperature. (4) 1000 g of a 4% solution of salt contains :

Answer»

4 g salt
4 moles of salt

(3) The molality of a sulphuric acid solution in which in mole fraction of water is 0.85 is :

Answer»

`9.80`
`10.50`
`10.58`
`11.25`

Solution :`X_(H_(2)O)=0.85,X_(H_(2)SO_(4))=0.15`
`n_(1)/(n_(1)+n_(2))=0.85,n_(2)/(n_(1)+n_(2))=0.15`
`n_(2)/n_(1)=(0.15)/(0.85)`
TAKING `n_(1)=1000/18` moles
`n_(2)=(0.15)/(0.85)xx1000/18=9.80`
